Legian

Sinar Bali Hotel

A very hidden secret place, and great food. Opposite the 7 Corner Bar and directly behind the new very large Aramis Hotel is Sinar Bali.. Ketut and Madi are excellent chefs (Ketut having worked on the QE2) The Menu is huge and the prices are very very cheap. 10 satay sticks and rice for Fettucini Cabanara. Great Club Sandwiches and Tom and Jerry (Rissoles and Chips) A must try, not many people go here because it’s tucked away. Do mention Niki and The Bali Buddy if you visit. You wont be disappointed.. Also ladies the cheapest Red and White Wine in Bali.

Warung Kantini

On my top five list in Legian. No bells and whistles here but the most amazing served steaming hot well priced food. Down Three Brothers Lane off Padma Ultara. The best spring rolls (4) and the best IndoSpecialChicken Fried Rice. It is that good you often see people waiting on the street to get in.. Do wait the turn over is really quick and it is defiantly worth it. Mango Juice is Devinne I always get a takeaway for Brekky.. The menu is endless.

Legends Bar

You must see the Yellow Band here and take the kids to see the Elvis / Michael Jackson Show. The Yellow Band play some fantastic tunes and always make you feel welcome. Some people love Legends that much they go back night after night. The staff are so friendly and really make you feel apart of Legends.

Je Je: Just above the Spider Bar in Padma Ultara this place is great for large groups and the food and service is excellent.

Sangria Ribs: OMG these are the very very best… A huge rack of the tastiest ribs, freshest vegies and sauteed potatoes.. Just the best…Other choices available & all food is great.

La Monde

Best Pina Coladas in Bali. The satay chicken here is divine, its served on your own mini BBQ. Yummy. Pizzas are great too.

Cocktails at La Monde
